Reliable. Cozy. Quickly. Combustion!

I use this keyboard as my primary input device for work and PC so I can keep both laptops out of reach. It does an excellent job with all the features listed, and I can type on it just as well as I can on any other keyboard. Good: Ergonomics: Touch typing success includes number keys, insert/delete/home/end/page up/page down/arrow keys. Good keystrokes: Keystrokes are precise and appear to use the same low-travel switches as my Asus Zenbook. They're as quiet as advertised, with just enough feel that you can let go of the key before it hits bottom of travel. Good backlighting - essential to my purchase - allows me to print in a room lit only by computer screens. Different colors are one thing, but rarely my thing. Adjustable brightness is good for saving battery life. Good connectivity: Works well with my Dell and Asus laptops running Windows 10. It automatically connects after a reboot, allowing me to log into computers without touching individual keyboards. When switching between computers, the keyboard will buffer the next keystroke while the switch is complete. A bug that revealed its strength: the lower left Ctrl key was not pressed consistently. It's not good if Ctrl-X becomes the letter "x". Since scissor switches allow you to change keycaps, I decided to remove the cap from the Ctrl key. Seeing nothing wrong, I blew on the switch to remove whatever was there and put the cap back in place. Voila. Problem solved. This should bode well for the keyboard's longevity. Update 1: Battery life: The keyboard lasted 2 weeks (12 calendar days) on a single charge with the lowest backlight level and never turned it off with the switch. He politely explained that the battery was dead and turned off the backlight faster than usual. It got me looking at the flashing red light that said charge me up. Charge me up." Update 2: Silicone Case: I didn't notice how much dust accumulated on my stuff in my office. <sigh> After using the case for over a week, I found it worked well; It does change how I type though, obviously I'm sliding my fingers between the keys when typing without the lid, the increased friction on the lid slows me down when I draw, forcing me to raise and lower my fingers to get faster The cover design included thoughtfully sculpted bulges on the F and J keys, like most non-cover keyboards.(My engineering mind loves details like that.) Well done Seenda team.

Pros
  • Great selection
Cons
